8.2.1.2.9 Compensation Components

Choose compensation components for a stable control loop using the procedure outlined as follows.

  1. Based on the target loop crossover frequency, fC, of 60kHz, use Equation 44 to calculate RCOMP1, assuming an effective output capacitance of 128µF. Select RCOMP1 equal to 10kΩ.
    Equation 44. LM5137-Q1
  2. Calculate CCOMP1 to create a zero at the higher of (1) one tenth of the crossover frequency, or (2) the load pole. Select a capacitor value for CCOMP1 of 3.3nF. In general, set the time constant of RCOMP1 and CCOMP1 at approximately 25µs to maintain a fast settling time of the output voltage following a load transient.
    Equation 45. LM5137-Q1
  3. Calculate CHF1 to create a pole at the lower of the ESR zero frequency or at half switching frquency (to attenuate high-frequency noise). Select a capacitor value for CHF1 of 68pF.
    Equation 46. LM5137-Q1
Note:

Set a high loop crossover frequency with high RCOMP and low CCOMP values to improve the large-signal response when recovering from operation in dropout.
